  • Patent number: 11349116
    Abstract: Provided are a MoSxOy/carbon nanocomposite material, a preparation method therefor and a use thereof. In the MoSxOy/carbon nanocomposite material, 2.5?x?3.1, 0.2?y?0.7, and the mass percent of MoSxOy is 5%-50% based on the total mass of the nanocomposite material. When the MoSxOy/carbon nanocomposite material is used as a catalyst for an electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction, the current density is 150 mA/cm2 or more at an overpotential of 300 mV. The difference between this performance and the performance of a commercial 20% Pt/C catalyst is relatively small, or even equivalent; and this performance is far better than the catalytic performance of an existing MOS2 composite material. The MoSxOy/carbon nanocomposite material also has a good catalytic stability, and after 8,000 catalytic cycles, the current density thereof is only decreased by 3%, thus exhibiting a very good catalytic performance and cycle stability.

  • Patent number: 11201323
    Abstract: A MoSx/carbon black nanocomposite material, and a manufacturing method and application thereof. In the MoSx/carbon black nanocomposite material, 2?x?2.3. The weight percentage of MoSx as part of the total weight of the nanocomposite material is 5-50%. The MoSx/carbon black nanocomposite material has 20% higher performance when compared to a commercial 20% Pt/C catalyst. The manufactured MoSx/carbon black nanocomposite material also has excellent catalytic stability. There is no significant decrease in catalytic performance of the material after 5,000 catalytic cycles.

  • Patent number: 9643172
    Abstract: A metal loaded catalyst comprises a support and main active metal components and optional auxiliary active metal components, wherein the main active metal components are elementary substances and obtained by ionizing radiation reducing precursors of main active metal components. The catalyst can be widely used in the catalytic reactions of petrochemistry industry with high activity and selectivity. The catalyst can be used directly without being reduced preliminarily by hydrogen.
